A rare opportunity has arisen to acquire a home of true distinction on Ceanchor Road, Baily, arguably Howth’s premier address. Ceanchor Road is on the southerly slopes of the Howth Peninsula, renowned for its rugged landscape and expansive sea views, and features upscale distinguished properties in a secluded setting.
Perched on a 0.7 acre site, Kilberry House enjoys a perfect vantage point with the Hill of Howth creating a perfect backdrop and unobstructed southerly views across Dublin Bay towards the Dublin Mountains. The house itself radiates timeless elegance with accommodation consisting of an entrance porch through to hallway with guest WC off, living room with door to dining room, kitchen, and sunroom. There is a second entrance hallway with sitting room off and a spiral staircase leading to the first floor.
On the first floor the accommodation comprises a spacious landing area, guest WC and hot press. There are five large bedrooms, master en-suite, sunroom with spectacular sea views, and bathroom. The property also benefits from a self-contained annex making it an ideal space for extended family, guests or even an au pair. The annex includes a living room with wonderful views of the coastline, fully equipped kitchenette and large bedroom en-suite. There is also a converted attic room with eaves storage.
The extensive gardens are a major focal point of this property and have sweeping sea views towards the Irish Sea. Meticulously manicured lawns, climbing roses and lush greenery surround the house and provide an oasis of tranquility. A paved patio area takes full advantage of its southerly aspect with enchanting views of the garden and coastline making it a perfect place for outdoor entertaining. A graveled pathway leads to a wisteria clad shed ideal for outdoor storage and there is also a greenhouse for the avid gardener.
There is ample parking for several cars to the front and the property is nicely screened by high hedging and mature trees.
Kilberry House is close to the vibrant village of Howth where there is an abundance of bars, boutiques and seafood restaurants. There are good primary and secondary schools nearby as well as sailing, tennis and golf clubs. Howth Harbour and Pier are perfect for leisurely walks and the more adventurous can enjoy one of the many trails around Howth’s cliff path, or sea swimming in Balscadden Bay. The city centre can be easily accessed with a regular bus service and the DART station in Howth Village.
This fine property truly embodies the essence of Howth’s coastal lifestyle and must be viewed to fully appreciate all its features.
